Fantasy & SciFi

Mary is a gas-station attendant with an epileptic son who can barely make ends meet, when she makes them meet at all. She has dreams of a forbidden love but can’t focus on those dreams when she can’t even buy her son’s medicine. She has a real knack for staying calm under pressure, and steadfastly does what she needs to in order to keep food on their table and a roof over their heads. One day she has an encounter with a woman who claims she can change Mary’s life in an instant.

After a strange dream that seems like a sign, Mary meets her mystery woman, who offers her a strange deal. From there, Mary is taken on a whirlwind ride that threatens to crack her reality in two. She’s taken “behind the curtain” into a world she never dreamed could imagine – a world where nightmarish chaos is only kept at bay by a small few – and now they want her to be one of them.

It seems like the opportunity of a lifetime, but will Mary be willing to sacrifice her own values and those she’s trying to teach to her son in order to get them a better life?

About the Author:

Brandon Humphreys was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest and most of his short stories take place in his home state of Washington. He has a Master of Arts degree in English and creative writing, and he works as a freelance writer, adjunct writing professor, and a college writing consultant when he’s not writing his own fiction and blog pieces. He is a veteran of the Washington Air National Guard, plays guitar, loves dogs, and loves to fly kites on the beach. He is currently finishing his first novel about a bunch of dragons and their worshipers on another world.
